Pau D'Arco (Ipe Roxo) Tea (Loose) (4 oz, ZIN: 427077) - 2 Pack

Pau D'Arco Bark has been an important part of tribal rejuvenating in the South rainforest for thousands of years. It can be been used as a traditional approach for the support of a wide variety of complaints both internally and externally. Modern science has validated Pau D'Arco's effectiveness as a support for a number of complaints including: constipation and suppression and pain support. Part of the herb's effectiveness may stem from the fact that it is a powerful antioxidant and it appears to increase the production of red blood cells. - References: - Balch, 1997; BHMA Scientific Committee, 1996; Hallowell, 1994; Hoffman, 1994; Tyler, 1993; Tyler, 1994; Wishard, 1995. - Hot tea brewing method: Bring freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place 1 teaspoon for each cup into the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the teapot. Cover and let steep for 3-7 minutes according to taste (the longer the steeping time the stronger the tea). - Iced tea brewing method (to make 1 liter/quart): Place 6 teaspoons into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the leaves. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste. [A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to double the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water].
